If man is actually the product of his environment and if science can discover the laws of human nature and the ways in which environment determines what people do, then someone -- a someone probably standing outside traditional systems of values -- can turn around and develop completely efficient means for controlling people.

He explained that this is one of the most important analects: " If the people be led by laws, and uniformity sought to be given them by punishments, they will try to avoid the punishment, but have no sense of shame.

If the franchisor requires purchase from his stores, it may come under anti-trust legislation or equivalent laws of other countries.

"(...) If Russia is tending to become a capitalist nation after the example of the Western European countries, and during the last years she has been taking a lot of trouble in this direction-she will not succeed without having first transformed a good part of her peasants into proletarians ; and after that, once taken to the bosom of the capitalist regime, she will experience its pitiless laws like other profane peoples.

If they further reflect, they must also recognize that an act of mutual love which impairs the capacity to transmit life which God the Creator, through specific laws, has built into it, frustrates His design which constitutes the norm of marriage, and contradicts the will of the Author of life.

If the coordinates are chosen badly, the laws of motion may be more complex than necessary.

If, therefore, the legislature pass any laws, inconsistent with the sense the judges put upon the constitution, they will declare it void.

If there were a large ( possibly infinite ) number of universes, each with possibly different physical laws ( or different fundamental physical constants ), some of these universes, even if very few, would have the combination of laws and fundamental parameters that are suitable for the development of matter, astronomical structures, elemental diversity, stars, and planets that can exist long enough for life to emerge and evolve.

If seen to fruition, which seems likely, the new laws will reduce tourism in the Netherlands dramatically and cost the exchequer millions in lost revenue and well-established business are forecast to go bankrupt.

If the number of universes is unlimited, then the power of a certain God-like entity is also unlimited, since the laws of physics may be different in other universes, and accordingly making this entity omnipotent.

If any animal has a system of laws regulating the body politic, it is certainly the prairie dog.

If other peoples have had prophets, books, and laws, these constitute no difficulty for Islam .”

If a treaty requires implementing legislation, a state may be in default of its obligations by the failure of its legislature to pass the necessary domestic laws.

He concluded that " If Marshall were merely stupid, the laws of probability would dictate that part of his decisions would serve this country's interest.

In universal algebra, a subalgebra of an algebra A is a subset S of A that also has the structure of an algebra of the same type when the algebraic operations are restricted to S. If the axioms of a kind of algebraic structure is described by equational laws, as is typically the case in universal algebra, then the only thing that needs to be checked is that S is closed under the operations.

Iran, however, has made the following reservation “ If the text of the Convention is or becomes incompatible with the domestic laws and Islamic standards at any time or in any case, the Government of the Islamic Republic shall not abide by it .” Iran has also signed the both optional protocols which relate to the special protection of children against involvement in armed conflict and the sale of children and sexual exploitation.

* If the inferior power is in a position of self-defense ; i. e., under attack or occupation, it may be possible to use unconventional tactics, such as hit-and-run and selective battles in which the superior power is weaker, as an effective means of harassment without violating the laws of war.

* If the inferior power is in an aggressive position, however, and / or turns to tactics prohibited by the laws of war ( jus in bello ), its success depends on the superior power's refraining from like tactics.

The next citations are not found until 1955, when the May – June issue of Aviation Mechanics Bulletin included the line " Murphy's Law: If an aircraft part can be installed incorrectly, someone will install it that way ," and Lloyd Mallan's book, Men, Rockets and Space Rats, referred to: " Colonel Stapp's favorite takeoff on sober scientific laws — Murphy's Law, Stapp calls it —' Everything that can possibly go wrong will go wrong '.

If it were actually possible to have complete knowledge of physical matter and all of the laws governing that matter at any one time, then it would be theoretically possible to compute the time and place of every event that will ever occur ( Laplace's demon ).

* Ain't Nobody's Business If You Do ( ISBN 0-931580-58-7 ) is a book by Peter McWilliams criticizing the existence of laws against consensual crimes.

If this happened, Labor would have an effective 33 – 31 margin, would be able to pass supply if that was still an issue, and also could pass electoral redistribution laws ( which had been passed by the House, though twice defeated by the Senate ) that would give it an advantage at the next election.

His Slavery Discussed in Occasional Essays from 1833 to 1846 ( 1846 ) exercised considerable influence upon Abraham Lincoln, and in this book appears the sentence, which, as rephrased by Lincoln, was widely quoted: " If that form of government, that system of social order is not wrong — if those laws of the Southern States, by virtue of which slavery exists there, and is what it is, are not wrong — nothing is wrong.

If certain coordinate systems are used, for instance, polar-toroidal coordinates ( common in plasma physics ) using the notation ∇ × F will yield an incorrect result.

If the proper physics are not taken into consideration, injuries may occur.

If a ray tracing is then made as if a light wave ( as understood in classical physics ) is wide enough to take both paths, then that ray tracing will accurately predict the appearance of maxima and minima on the detector screen when many particles pass through the apparatus and gradually " paint " the expected interference pattern.

The well-known historian of physics, C. P. Snow, says about him, " If Fermi had been born a few years earlier, one could well imagine him discovering Rutherford's atomic nucleus, and then developing Bohr's theory of the hydrogen atom.

In his book, The God Particle: If the Universe Is the Answer, What Is the Question ?, Lederman writes that, although he was a chemistry major, he became fascinated with physics, because of the clarity of the logic and the unambiguous results from experimentation.

If on the other hand, we define the notion of what is physical based some future idealized physics, we have not effectively defined anything at all because nobody knows what entities a future physical theory might postulate.

If one is inclined from the outset to ignore or discount the possibility of new physics, then one will regard self-consistency as a trivial principle.

If the magnitude of v < sub > 3 </ sub > were to describe a measurable physical quantity, that would mean that the laws of physics would not appear the same if the universe was viewed in a mirror.

: People say to me, “ Are you looking for the ultimate laws of physics ?” No, I ’ m not … If it turns out there is a simple ultimate law which explains everything, so be it — that would be very nice to discover.

If H is Hermitian ( the name for self-adjoint in the physics literature ) and f is a Borel function,

Describing this situation after many decades, Ambartsumian said, " If an astronomer publishes an article with a mathematical content in a physics journal, then the most likely thing that will happen to it is oblivion.

If the Large Hadron Collider and other major particle physics experiments fail to detect supersymmetric partners or evidence of extra dimensions, many versions of string theory which had predicted certain low mass superpartners to existing particles may need to be significantly revised.

If we want to ignore the physics inside the conductor and only describe the physics in the outside region, it becomes natural to mathematically describe the quantum electron by a section in a complex line bundle with an " external " connection rather than an external EM field ( by incorporating local gauge transformations we have already acknowledged that quantum mechanics defines the notion of a ( locally ) flat wavefunction ( zero momentum density ) but not that of unit wavefunction ).

If physics on scales we can measure is independent of what happens at the very shortest distance and time scales, then it should be possible to get cutoff-independent results for calculations.

If QFT holds all the way down past the Planck length ( where it might yield to string theory, causal set theory or something different ), then there may be no real problem with short-distance divergences in particle physics either ; all field theories could simply be effective field theories.

If the cutoff is a real, physical quantity — if, that is, the theory is only an effective description of physics up to some maximum energy or minimum distance scale — then these extra terms could represent real physical interactions.

If one inserts a more realistic barrier model into the simplest form of the Schrödinger equation, then an awkward mathematical problem arises over the resulting differential equation: it is known to be mathematically impossible in principle to solve this equation exactly in terms of the usual functions of mathematical physics, or in any simple way.

If the statements of the laws of phyiscs were assumed correct, one would have had to suppose ( as did most philosophers ) that the feeling of freedom is illusory, or if choice were considered effective, that the laws of physics ...

... " If there is a ... ' Father of Neutron Scattering ' in the United States, it is Professor Shull ," wrote Anthony Nunes ..., professor of physics at the University of Rhode Island.

Describing this situation after many decades, Hambardzumyan said, " If an astronomer publishes an article with a mathematical content in a physics journal, then the most likely thing that will happen to it is oblivion.

If, on the other side, " econophysics " is taken to denote the application of physics to

If a second match with experiment or theory ( for example, the value of Newton's force at long distance ) were found requiring a different value of the Immirzi parameter, it would constitute evidence that loop quantum gravity cannot reproduce the physics of general relativity at long distances.
